Autodesk Revit – Beginner to Advanced level

Autodesk Revit – For the Beginner user, bringing them right up to an advanced level!

Here are five professional outcomes or skills that you can expect to gain from this course:

1. Proficiency in Autodesk Revit:You will develop a strong understanding of the software’s interface, tools, and functionalities, enabling you to efficiently navigate and utilize Revit for various architectural, engineering, and construction projects.

2. Building Information Modeling (BIM) expertise:The course will equip you with comprehensive knowledge of BIM principles and practices using Autodesk Revit. You will learn how to create and manage intelligent 3D models, incorporating architectural, structural, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) systems.

3. Project Collaboration and Coordination:You will learn how to collaborate effectively with other professionals involved in a project. You will gain insights into sharing and linking Revit models, coordinating design changes, and managing conflicts through effective communication and collaboration workflows.

4. Advanced Modeling and Visualization Techniques:The course will cover advanced modeling techniques, including creating parametric families, using advanced geometry tools, and implementing advanced visualization methods such as rendering, walkthroughs, and flyovers. You will learn how to enhance your design presentations and create visually compelling representations of your projects.

5. Documentation and Construction Documentation:The course emphasizes the importance of accurate and comprehensive documentation in the design and construction process. You will learn how to generate construction drawings, schedules, and other essential documentation directly from the Revit model, streamlining the documentation process and ensuring consistency and accuracy throughout the project lifecycle.

These outcomes and skills will enable you to confidently apply your knowledge of Autodesk Revit across various industries, enhancing your professional capabilities and career prospects.

Course content

First, I will guide you through the installation process, ensuring you have installed the correct library and region template. I will be using the UK Metric library and templates but don’t worry if you want to use another. All the processes will be the same and if I use a component from the UK library that isn’t available in your library, I will always suggest one for you.

As with BIM, you work solely on one single project, so I have constructed this course in the same way.

If you do not have previous experience with Revit or any CAD-based software, don’t worry. I will start off from the beginning building you up to be more than capable of creating your own Revit models.

The course will start off by giving a brief introduction to the fundamentals of a building, what BIM is, and then moving onto the basics of Revit; from the terminology that Revit uses to the tools and interface.

We will then begin to build on our projects, introducing a new tool and feature as we progress.

Adding in the datum elements, such as the levels and grids.

Structural components, such as the Structural and Architectural columns

Major and Minor Components like the; walls, windows, doors, floors, stairs, ceilings, curtain walls, and roofs.

We will then take it to the next level and learn how to create 2D details, how to tag the components, create schedules & legends, material takeoff sheets, create custom materials, and annotation styles, and create render images and video walkthroughs.

Projects that we will create:

– Single-storey house,

– Two-storey house,

– Structural frame,

– Conceptual mass,

– Table & Door families,

– Door, wall, and floor tags,

– Worksharing model,

– Design option layouts,

– Phasing project,

– Linked projects,

– Topography site layout,

Then, we will set up our sheets and send them to print.

As a recap, I have added 3 quizzes with 68 questions to test your knowledge. This won’t affect your final certificate but will refresh what you have just learned.

Once you complete the course, why not test out your new skills by taking the final exam, consisting of 40 questions!

Finally, I continually update this course to keep it up to date with the new releases as well as add new videos.

I look forward to seeing you in class!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
